Default induction bonnet vent

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/subaru-wrx-st...item3a5e57aa73

just saw this and was wondering if it will help get cold air to the pod, stop some of the heat soaking. The only thing that worries me is sucking in water if it rains or a car wash. What do u guys think? dunno how it would look either would i need both sides to keep it looking right?

That yellow car on the Ultrex website is Daren's car from here I think. 'Spec IV' They look mint IMO, even if they don't serve much of a purpose.

well i would only ever concider getting one if it did help with getting cold air into the pod, as there isnt much free flowing air in the hole where the pod sits, looks like a hot place

If there is any chance that you will be driving in wet weather, I would probably avoid. Although I am no expert, but my pod gets the rare, occasional bit of water on it from the standard vent.

Looks good though
